What is the ICD-10 code for left Periprosthetic femur fracture? ›

2024 ICD-10-CM Codes M97*: Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic joint.

A: We will want to look at ICD-10-CM code S72. 401A, Unspecified fracture of lower end of right femur, initial encounter for closed fracture, and code M97. 01XA, Periprosthetic fracture around the internal prosthetic right hip joint, initial encounter, along with the appropriate external cause code for the fall.

Fractures around joint replacement prostheses are commonly called periprosthetic fractures, whereas fractures around plates, rods, or prostheses can be more generally termed peri-implant fractures. Nonprosthetic peri-implant fractures may be considered to represent a separate entity.

Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic left hip joint, initial encounter. M97. 02XA is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursem*nt purposes.

ICD-10 code S72. 302A for Unspecified fracture of shaft of left femur, initial encounter for closed fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .

Periprosthetic in medicine refers to a structure in close relation to an implant. Clinically it can refer to: Bone fracture or 'periprosthetic fracture' around an artificial joint, e.g. after a knee replacement.

In ICD-10-CM, periprosthetic fractures are reported with codes from category M97 Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic joint. There is an instructional note under M97 that states "Code first, if known, the specific type and cause of fracture, such as traumatic or pathological."

ICD-10 code M97. 9 for Periprosthetic fracture around unspecified internal prosthetic joint is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue .

27506 Open treatment of femoral shaft fracture, with or without external fixation, with insertion of intramedullary implant, with or without cerclage and/or locking screws.

Treatment: Open reduction and internal fixation with a plate construct is the standard method of fixation. Ricci et al. described the number of screws used in a locking plate proximal and distal depend on the location of the fracture.

How long does it take for a periprosthetic femur fracture to heal? ›

In patients that healed, the average time to medial bridging callus formation was 10.7±6.7 weeks, 11.0±6.6 weeks for anterior fracture line and 13.4±7.5 weeks for the posterior fracture line.

Periprosthetic distal femur fractures exclusively treated with plate fixation require weight-bearing restrictions for weeks to months. Postoperative patient immobilization drastically increases the complication risk associated with surgery, and avoidance of this limitation is one of the main indications for surgery.
